Thanks—saw that one too.
All right, it’s still early in the morning for me and my marxist-to-English dictionary in my head isn’t functioning right now. But if I paraphrase the gist of this “open” letter, these esteemed members of the faculty seem to be saying:
“Well, however the rape case turned out WE know that there are some serious issues that black students have to suffer through at Duke every day and we’re more concerned about them than these players. Neener neener neener.”
Is that the sum of it?
